PHUKET:-- Officers from the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources (DMCR) yesterday filed a complaint at Chalong Police Station against a diving company and instructor for allowing tourists to step on coral at Koh Racha Yai.

A social media user who calls himself ‘Seaman Freeman’ captured and uploaded pictures of dive company activities that included two Korean tourists and a Thai diving instructor stepping on coral last week.

“We immediately took action after seeing the pictures and learned that it was a diving team from a company named Dragon Diving Co Ltd. We also learned that the instructor in the pictures is Nattha Srinim, 33, who at first denied his involvement. However, after collecting all the evidence and witnesses, he confessed,” said Suchat Rattanaruengsri of the DMCR.

O really TIT

well, that's a good idea. I think a 500 Baht fine is acceptable and a promise not to do again.

I hope they were not feeding the fish
